To program the multiplexer modules with an HP E1300A/01A Mainframe
or an HP E1405B/E1406A Command Module, the modules must be
configured as an instrument. If using the HP E1300 Mainframe or
HP E1405 Command Module, you MUST have version 06.00
(or greater) firmware for the 16-Channel Multiplexer Modules to
properly identify. An instrument configuration for the multiplexer
modules must be a:
•
Scanning Voltmeter - Used with an HP E1326B/E1411A Multimeter.
•
Switchbox - Used with other switch type modules, like other
multiplexer modules, etc.
(The above requirements are not necessary if using register-based
programming to program the modules.)
Use this configuration for:
1. Easiest system programming.
2. Fastest execution speed.
3. Thermocouple measurements if using the HP E1326B/E1411B
temperature function.
To use this configuration, set the multimeter's logical address to a multiple
of 8. Also set the first multiplexer module's logical address to the next
address value, the second module to the next address value, and so on. The
following shows the logical address settings of a Scanning Voltmeter with
the multimeter address set to 24.

To program the scanning voltmeter, use the programming information in the
appropriate multimeter manual.
